John Kennedy is a man in demand, with two of his former bosses vying for his services.
The Celtic stalwart has been a constant through several eras of change at Parkhead. The latest came to end this month when Ange Postecoglou left for Tottenham, and he wants to take Kennedy with him as part of his coaching staff. Celtic are standing firm though, and whilst they would want to hold on to the highly rated coach anyway, the imminent return of Brendan Rodgers makes it even more crucial.
The Northern Irishman world closely with Kennedy during the former’s first spell in charge that saw the Hoops sweep all before them. With Rodgers’ former No. 2 Chris Davies the frontrunner for the Swansea job, that appears to be a reunion that won’t happen in Glasgow. Kennedy is well placed to continue seamlessly as assistant to Rodgers, although he has apparently made it known he would like to join Spurs.
